Brittney’s Wrestling Report

Now! Everyone that knows me knows I am the biggest Undertaker fan around. I wear random Undertaker shirts to school and work and cry every time I think of the Undertaker losing at WrestleMania (sniff sniff).  In anticipation of Survivor Series, here is a look at my favorite wrestler's debut here. 1990 is the year I was born, and it was the year we were graced with the Undertaker. This is my bid that 1990 is the best year yet. 

As many WWE fans know by now, The Modern Day Maharaja Jinder Mahal will be stepping into the squared circle with the Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar. According to Forbes.com WWE fans do not want to see Mahal vs. Lesnar. Honestly, fans are sure what they want to see. Fans were so excited about Lesnar v. Goldberg at last year's Survivor Series only to be disheartened by the underwhelming effort put into the actual match itself. At this point, fans are happy with high-quality matches and matches that fulfill their expectations. Here are three reasons why Mahal v. Lesnar will satisfy fans expectations.  1. This is a new match, and no one knows what to expect. Fans always complain that they are tired of seeing the same matches over and over again. At the same time, fans are complaining about a brand new match that they have never seen. (What a coincidence). Fans want something fresh but have been under impressed with Mahal; however, the freshness of this match is an excellent s...

First things first, this match was amazing! This match definitely is in the running for tag team match of the year. It had everything that it needed. As to the title change, I will admit, it was premature. However, this match provided us with tag team wrestling at it' finest. These two teams are the two best teams WWE have seen in the last decade, and I am going to say it, both are in the top 20 tag teams of all time. These two teams were born for the tag-team division. It was flawless tag team at its finest. But we all know that the title will change hands again...very soon. Well, because titles change hands everyday in WWE for no reason at all. WINNER: USOS Grade: A 

I  clumped these two matches together because I have read so many articles that compare these two matches to each other. So many say that Sasha and Alexa Bliss was better than Nattie and Naomi. NOT HARDLY! Now, I am a Sasha Banks fan, but the truth is I am a bigger Natalya and Naomi fan. Natalya and Naomi were exciting and both women showed off their respective wrestling styles. Sasha Banks and Alexa Bliss were BORING! I am so serious, even my little brother said...this match is boring. The main reason why Banks and Bliss failed for me is that Bliss' offense is super boring. I know her offense is punishment and heel centered, however, her limited move-set was exposed against the wide arsenal Sasha Banks. Natalya and Naomi proved to be the much better match. It was apparent that the two worked together to put on a great match and it made me proud to be a women's wrestling fan. Natalya is the master technician on the women's roster...hands down. This was a record-breaking pay...

For all of the haters out there, Jinder Mahal is STILL the Smackdown Live Champion. I know, I am a wrestling purist and my support for Mahal confuses many out there. However, Jinder Mahal did work his way up to the top and he does deserve the spotlight he is being given. Just admit it. His heel persona is wrestling purism to its maximum. He reminds me of the old school heals that are REALLY hated, and I love him for that. I am so over the heels that the fans cheer for and the good guys the fans boo. What happened to good ole fashion good vs. bad. Well, Mahal gives us that and we should all be thankful. Without a real bad guy, Shinske wouldn't be good and neither would John Cena.  Further, I don't see Shinske being ready to be WWE Champion. If you haven't noticed, very few superstars come to the WWE from other promotions and dominate the WWE (AJ Styles is the exception). Do you want to know why? WWE is the BIG DOG when it comes to sports entertainment and no superstar b...

Over the next few days I will be posting my personal ranking of the best...and worst SummerSlam Cards. Starting with the worst... SummerSlam 29 This card was ignorant...just ignorant. I am one of many Bloggers that think this is one of the worst SummerSlam Cards of all time. The only match on this card worthy of a shout out is Shawn Michaels vs. Razor Ramon. Bret Hart, the ring general that he is, could not save the match with a young Kane aka DDS. And whoever in the hell thought it was a good idea to have big man Diesel against big man King Mabel in the same match needs to be slapped. Mabel was the opposite of a good worker, Diesel was not a good enough worker to carry the match. Undertaker vs. Kama. Okay, this card has so many of my favorites on here it makes me sad the way they were used. Undertaker could have been used so much better. Nothing against Kama, I liked him too...however the two together...well we saw it before. (Undertaker vs. Papa Shango).  Overall this w...

Check out this interesting video What Culture did. Most ripped wrestlers include Big Show!

Me and my little brother having a Divas Match for the Women's Title. He only wins because I suck at submissions LOL 

  I was only three years old when Survivor Series 1993 took place! This was the Golden Age of wrestling for me. This is when WWE had the coolest theme songs and theme videos for their pay-per-views. It sold drama and passion, something that is hard to sell today with the death of the pro-wrestling gimmick. The Survivor Series 1993 video theme was a roller coaster much like the most recent WrestleMania's theme but at Survivor Series 1993 it reminded me of the Gold Rush ride at Six Flags Magic Mountain, which is pretty cool. This is the same Survivor Series where the Hart Family took on Shawn Michaels and his Knights. I do not remember this match, but then again I was only three at a time. I had a limited memory. However, what I do remember is what happened after this match. Owen blamed Bret for him being eliminated from the match. This was the beginning of their infamous sibling rivalry.  This is not the only rivalry that was ignited at Survivor Series. Survivor Se...

The Fashion Police are getting over and it is a beautiful thing! These two are sooo funny, I actually really chuckle during their backstage promos. They have captured that thing called comedy and harnessed it.  Did you notice the "Missing" poster they had on the board with Chris Jericho's face on it? Vince McMahon's mugshot? Big Boss Man's picture? The Mean Street Posse is wanted for Gang Activity! Luke Harper's picture says Big & Tall and Beardy! They call the Usos the Uggos. HAHA!  I love that the WWE has added some much-needed comedy to SmackDown Live this is like Will Ferrel level of comedy. It is so funny because they are so stupid, and caught up in themselves. That is a level of comedic storytelling genius. They aren't necessarily telling jokes, rather they have adopted a gimmick and their characters are so oblivious and dedicated to their fashion police cause that it is the most entertaining thing to watch.  Breezango needed a reboot and ...

I have to admit, I am becoming a huge Jinder Mahal fan. His celebration on SmackDown was brilliant! While I have read other blogger's blog that says that Jinder focussing on his foreigner status is a mistake, it is hard to believe that.  The hate the WWE Universe has for Mahal is a beautiful and rare thing in this day in age (well, unless you're Roman Reigns). The WWE Universe cheers Bray Wyatt and boos John Cena. Past heroes like the Undertaker have made the WWE Universe accustomed to the anti-hero. The guy that is bad but good at the same time. Thus, the WWE Universe hates those that are too good as they feel they are too fake and cheers the evil bad guy for their authenticity.  But not Jinder Mahal. His heel status is authentic, the reason he hates the WWE is real and you feel it in your gut. Especially with the current talk around America's foreign affairs. Mahal's celebration was met with boos as the WWE Universe listened to his every word. Who would have thou...

For the very few people who know me very very well, they know that I never was interested in WCW product. I was a loyalist and a dedicated WWE Fan. Now, when Bret Hart went to WCW I honestly quit watching wrestling until the Attitude Era was in full swing. It was a good 3 months where I was a lost professional wrestling fan not knowing where to go. I honestly did not know Bret was in WCW or I might have followed him there. But as a six-year-old girl, I had limited sources of information. Even though all of my friends used to say WCW was where it was at, I refused to even look at WCW programming. I guess I forced myself to have limited information lol.  With that being said, even as a child, I did not understand the Fake Razor and Fake Diesel in the WWE. I was watching the Monday Night War on the WWE Network and I notice that Fake Razor and Fake Diesel. It reminded me of the poor decision WWE Creative had made. It was a low....low...low....low...low...low...low (you get my point) ...

Now, I know the WWE Network has their own show called Rivalries where they discuss some of the biggest rivalries that existed in Pro Wrestling. Rivalries like Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels that blended real life disgust of each other with on-screen chemistry. It is true, the two eventually exploded and created some of the greatest matches we have ever seen in the WWE.  However, not all rivalries were as long as intertwined with real life. Actually, the Undertaker and Yokozuna were friends outside of the ring. Both were members of the infamous BSK (A real-life backstage faction). At the same time, the rivalry between the Undertaker and Yokozuna was just as good, maybe even better than the rivalries of real-life enemies.   For some reason (perhaps his size and character), Vince McMahon loved to pit the Undertaker against the monsters of the WWE. This included Kamala, The Giant Gonzales, and Yokozuna. These  Original Monsters among men (sorry Braun you were not...

"I'm back in the director's chair, and I control how and when my next film will end... The Golden Age is BACK!" - @Goldust #RAW pic.twitter.com/eizEpJxz0Y — WWE (@WWE) May 23, 2017 The Golden Age is back! Goldust is back to his original heel version of himself and I could not be happier!! He was being so underutilized as a quirky good guy with Tourette's syndrome. Now, he is back to his original, creepy bad guy self. His promo reminded us of the old school Goldust who rose quickly to the Intercontinental Championship. Hopefully, we see a repeat here as I have always been a huge fan of the Golden One. His gimmick with R-Truth was not great. Bottom line, Goldust is too good to be latched onto R-Truth. Now, it is nothing wrong with Truth he is charismatic, a good worker and a good guy from what we have seen on Total Divas. At the same time, Goldust is one of the greatest mid-carders to ever proudly hold that spot. And don't underestimate the Golden One ...

The rumor mills are churning with positivity as it is being reported that the New DAY returns to SmackDown Live this week! The Usos successfully retained the SmackDown Tag Titles against Breezango and probably will be looking for new competition. This is just the right time for the New Day to return. Although Breezango were extremely entertaining, the reality is, we do not see them as the same caliber of tag team as the Usos and the New Day. However, Breezango v. Colons is a great mid-card tag feud that can add depth to a shallow division. I expect the New Day to grab the tag titles sometime soon, and engage in a heated rivalry with the Usos. This should be good, the Usos as heels have become vicious , calculated and very entertaining. Their no-nonsense demeanor will clash perfectly with the New Day’s fun loving personal. SmackDown Live continues to add more excitement and intrigue than Raw. I am all for the underdog!

The win of the Maharaja further establishes the NEW ERA of the WWE, which for now will be warmly acknowledged as the Era of the Maharaja .  Say what you want about Mahal, (he has gyno, he does not deserve the push, he has poor mic skills..etc.,) it does not matter. He is the WWE Champion. He went from jobber to WWE Champion in six months. Who has done that in the WWE? Not mid carder, but a real jobber.He was such a jobber he was in a jobber faction...3MB. Not only that but the entire faction was destroyed by Brock Lesnar upon his return. Mahal went from the lowest rung in WWE to the highest. That deserves praise. I have checked out his Instagram he is dedicated to his body, so I am not sure steroids are the answer to his physique . Side note: he always had gyno…from his debut to chubby days he always had a little man boob .  Mahal’s sudden elevation to WWE Champion demonstrates that WWE is willing to give new talent a shot. Perhaps it is because pay-per-views are chea...

ORTON V MAHAL Usually, I am bored with sub-shows and prefer the big events. But as everyone else, I am fascinated with the Jinder Mahal push. This Mahal push is adding a freshness to the WWE Championship picture. Let's face it, Randy Orton is boring. His character has not evolved for some time now, so when he regained the WWE Championship we all let out a brief "meh". But, with the Maharaja entering the WWE Championship picture, we are all excited to see if WWE will go all the way with Mahal and crown him the NEW WWE Champion.  Let us all hope so! This is the new era, nothing about Orton is the new era. Give us something new!! We need a shake up in the WWE Championship picture. Thus my prediction is Jinder Mahal . Of course, it is a slim chance he will win, however, I hope he does. I really really do.  THE USOS v. BREEZANGO Now, I have always been a die-hard Usos fan. However, Breezango is so funny, with lines like "fashion felony" how could one not ...

    Okay, so I was happily blogging my post of Naomi winning the Smackdown women's title when the Undertaker's music came on and I was distracted watching my favorite wrestler walk down the ramp. Then something strange happened...the Undertaker loss at WrestleMania again....and my heart sank. I actually was on a date during the time, and was distracted on my phone...because my childhood hero left his signature hat and coat in the ring. I was so so sad as I felt a piece of my childhood died that night. To remedy that I had a lot of drinks because I knew WrestleMania would never be the same. I wanted to tell my date dude...the Undertaker retired...I'm depressed. Like when Kobe retired ya'll was sad, I didn't judge you.  The Undertaker...what can I say about him. When I was younger, and I stood out and I was a little different...I fell in love with the Undertaker. That is who he was. He was the person that worked his ass off and stood by himself with his ...

My prediction: Bray Wyatt deserves to finally win at the grandest stage of them all. He is a hard worker and deserves it! My brother's pick is Randy. Of course, both my brothers are avid Randy Orton fans. Plus, Orton hasn't had a title reign in some time!  Memorable Moments:  The Snake that slithered with Randy  The Cockroaches, Maggots and Other Things on the Ring  RKO Out of No where  And NEW Smackdown Champion!! 

So of course I will rarely bet against Seth Rollins...Rollins is bae. This feud seemed shaky in January as Triple H's turn on Seth Rollins happened month prior. But that video of this feud is amazing. The part where King Triple H is sitting in the chair and Corporate Triple H is walking around it tells the story of a struggle that probably does happen in real life. Seth Rollins is one of the best in the business today, Triple H is well into his 40s but always remains in tip top shape. This match is one of the matches I have been looking forward to. My predictions: I am for Seth Rollins...of course. He is Seth freakin Rollins #Facts. Seth needs redemption he has had a bumpy ride and a win here will get him on that path. However, a loss for Triple H will do little to hurt the COO, he has been solidified.  My brother is for Triple H because he is the game and the King of Kings.  Match Highlights:  Triple H's entrance!!! OMG!...

So, of course I prefer the Miz and Maryse to win...because well they are so much more the couple I aspire to one then Nikki and John. Only because John never wants to be married or have children.  My prediction: Maryse and the Miz because they are the IT couple!!  My brother's is Nikki and John because he loves Cena. I actually am a Nikki fan but the Miz and Maryse together is LIT! I am sure they will win as Nikki and John want to take their time off on a high note and leave the IT couple to dominate Smackdown Live!  Memorable Moments: Maryse's hair is about to blow off her head ! LOL Maryse is taking a page from the Miz book and playing head games with Nikki  The crowd chanting "Miz is Awesome"  Maryse yanks Nikki of the apron!! Maryse is like the modern day Sensational Sherri!  The crowd booing as Nikki and John did the five knuckle shuffle and AA and Rack Attack 2.0  Nikki and John win...not surprising!  ...
